[QUOTE="Wenky, post: 548480, member: 1814"] Great second half from Baker this weekend, but I think a narrative that OBJ being out of the way helps him may be a bit of a distraction, or at least not the full story. Baker's second season regression did coincide with OBJ's arrival, and even now I don't think they have much chemistry on the field. However, Baker also lost a QB coach, was schemed into bad positions by Kitchens, faced teams who now had tape on him and had the humbling experience of not being able to back up what his mouth was spewing after his rookie year. Obviously it's impossible to gauge was psychological impact all of that had on Baker, but when his attitude/moxie are so often reported to be some of his better traits from a competitive standpoint, I wouldn't be surprised if Baker doesn't recover fully for a while yet. I think Baker has shown patches of really good play this year, and I still believe. I am also not panicking about Burrow as a threat in this division yet. For a rookie, he's put in some very good losing performances in the NFL. The Bengals will still need to get a lot better around him, as potentially the kid is two seasons of getting hit from being just another Sam Darnold / name your favourite battered into submission NFL QB.
